MUMBAI: After the successful stint with Pro Kabaddi League, Star India is all set to promote tennis in the country.
It is the broadcast partner for the Mahesh Bhupathi founded International Premier Tennis League (IPTL), which is a brand new team tennis format played across several countries in Asia with its first-ever edition to be held later this year.
Sources confirmed to i ndiantelevision.com that Star India has bagged the rights for the new tennis league. “Who else could broadcast such a league?” says the source.
All the matches will be produced in HD quality with IPTL graphics and commentary. The IPTL is a team tennis competition with $1 million in prize money featuring the best ATP and WTA players across selected cities in Asia from 28 November to 13 December 2014. The India franchise tennis team will compete with three teams from Philippines, Singapore and the UAE.
UFA Sports is the exclusive marketer of the worldwide media rights of the IPTL.
The official announcements are expected to be made in a few days.
